What's New
Lots of performance updates for 1.2. I've moved to GCD for all event handling. This has allowed me to pare down the code quite a bit. In the end, NewsBee is not only much faster but also more stable.NewsBee also provides much better International support thanks to the help and feedback of numerous beta testers!Summary of Major Changes:- Switched update process to GCD for performance reasons (yay, faster!)- Added functionality to handle extended character sets in URLs- Added escaping to display correct titles that contain HTML entities - Updates for different shortcut icon declarations
